Depends on the intended usage. The MDN page is a good reference

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/ol

Netsurf has never supported anything other than plain decimal
numbering for list markers/counters

I have added a basic implementation of the CSS 2.1 styles

https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/generate.html#propdef-list-style-type

Michael Drake fixed the HTML hinting so the type on the OL can be used
(note its on the OL *not* the LI element)

I cannot close a bug as noone opened one but please do so if there are
issues in this area.
